[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No homework, at least in elementary school, is in line with contemporary education research and best practices.[/quote] And for most kids that don't need remedial/extra help, HW really is not needed in ES.[/quote] The fact that grade school kids cannot write (penmanship ), cannot spell or use proper punctuation and sentence structure, do not know their math facts is entirely unrelated. Really?[/quote] Those things are, basically, not taught in ES. And I agree it is a huge problem. But has little to do with the need for homework.[/quote] Kids would do better at these skills with more practice. Homework is the second half, after being taught the skills. [/quote]
